Tab Sequence - Microsoft Access / VBA

trhq

am working on a form that has Header and Detail sections. I could not make
the cursor move to the Detail section after completing the Header section
(using TAB key). The cursor goes back at the first cell of the Header
section. I still have to use the mouse to click on the Detail section. How
do I automatically move using the Tab key to the Detail section after
completing the Header? Thanks.

Add a very small TextBox with no label attached to the header section and
make it last in the Tab Order. In its GotFocus event add code to set the
focus to the desired control in the detail section.

The TextBox can be so small as to be effectively invisible, but it must
have its visible property and enabled property set to True.

paii, Ron

Setting control color the same as your form background would make the
control invisible.
